Reading bar RYND set to be venue for country singer Steve Morano's new music video

Reading country musician, Steve Morano is set to record his new video at RYND, later this month.

On Thursday, September 24 from 8.45pm to 10.00pm, RYND will be taken over with a flavour of soulful country with tinges of Americana, as Steve uses the location in Castle Street as a backdrop for his five-song full band live music video.

Visitors are welcome to get involved and be a part of the music video, and members of the music industry will be be coming along too.

Steve said: "We really have something special and promise a fun evening, at RYND Reading's coolest and friendliest new hip venue. Lets take this to the next level!"

He has toured worldwide including USA, Australia and Asia, and has played various UK Festivals including a fiver year stint at Guilfest and very recently music performances in Nashville, Tennessee and appearances at Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Reading has been a source of inspiration for Steve's work over the years. His 2012 album called Jackson’s Corner, which also features as the title track, is named after the cult status department store on the corner of King’s Road. He said: “It’s kind of like a metaphor of being in a certain place; on the corner, not being in one place, waiting on a corner. That’s where I am in my life still. It’s a very personal song to me.

“Jacksons’ Corner has always been a building I’ve really loved, and I love Reading’s Victorian buildings so I thought ‘hey, let’s write a song about it’.”

So why create a video in Reading, open to everyone? Steve added: "The music industry has changed so much in the last five years.

"I would therefore rather create something new with the fans who have helped support my career than go straight back into a recording studio for hours on end with new material."
